New Driving Experience Unveiled

Tommy Baldwin, Jr. and Steve Park unveiled The American Muscle Driving Experience, a unique option for car enthusiasts.

Headquartered at Thompson (Conn.) Speedway Motorsports Park and Golf Club, the program offers three customizable skill levels to advance through utilizing everything from high-performance American muscle cars to authentic race-ready professional stock cars.

The program utilizes professional motorsport vehicle data acquisition systems to minimize the learning curve, allowing participants to advance their skills quicker. The program’s custom data acquisition systems record driver inputs such as throttle, steering, and braking; along with other vehicle parameters such as engine RPM, vehicle speed, and accelerations. GPS and video-overlay technology is also used to map out racing lines and to make comparisons to our professional instructors.

The American Muscle Driving Experience will also host several of the top racing drivers in the country. Participants will not only get to meet and ask questions to these special guest instructors, they will also get to see comparisons of driving data to the professional driver in the same vehicle and can even go for a ride-a-long experience at full racing speeds.

Tommy Baldwin Jr., son of the northeast modified racing legend “Tiger” Tom Baldwin, is a Daytona 500 winning Crew Chief and current NASCAR Sprint Cup Series team owner. Steve Park, a former NASCAR Sprint Cup Series competitor, is part of an elite group of drivers to record wins in all three of NASCAR’s national touring series. His first Cup Series win came in 2000 at Watkins Glen (N.Y.) Int’l, arguably one of the most challenging road courses in the country.

Whether participants are just looking to learn, hone existing skills, enjoy a day of high performance driving and golf or host a catered corporate event, the program is a one-of-a-kind experience that gives the experience of a lifetime.

Look for the American Muscle Car Driving Experience on Reed Sorenson’s Sprint Cup Series No. 36 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway this weekend and at Dover Int’l Speedway on September 28th.
